Dhurandhar 2 Advance Booking: Ranveer Singh Starrer Creates All-Time Bollywood Premiere Record

Mumbai, March 8 - Ranveer Singh's much-awaited action sequel Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has already started rewriting box office records even before its theatrical release. The film has created history in advance booking by setting a new benchmark for the biggest Bollywood premiere ever. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The previous record for the highest-grossing Bollywood premiere was held by Stree 2, which had collected around 8.50 crore net (10+ crore gross) from its paid preview shows. However, Dhurandhar 2 has now surpassed that milestone purely through advance ticket sales in just a little over 24 hours of bookings opening. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) What makes the achievement even more remarkable is that the film still has around 10 days left before its premiere shows, indicating that the final premiere total could go significantly higher by the time the film actually hits theatres. Currently, the total pre-sales of the film from premiere is 14+ crores gross (with block seats). The advance booking response has been phenomenal across major national multiplex chains, including PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, with tickets selling rapidly in key metro markets. The strong demand reflects the massive buzz surrounding part two of the spy action thriller, which follows the blockbuster success of the first Dhurandhar. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar 2 features a powerful ensemble cast including Ranveer Singh, Sanjay Dutt, Sara Arjun, R. Madhavan, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, Rakesh Bedi, and Yami Gautam. The film is scheduled to release on March 19, with paid premiere shows planned a day earlier. Stay tuned...

Yami Gautam Dhar Issues Clarification Over Accidental Social Media Like; Reaffirms Stance on Award Shows and PR Tactics

Actress Yami Gautam Dhar has addressed recent social media speculation regarding her activity on Instagram. The Article 370 actress issued a formal clarification via her official X account after reports surfaced that she had liked a reel that was perceived as condescending toward a fellow actor. Yami clarified that the interaction was unintentional and occurred while navigating through multiple social media tags. In her statement, Yami Gautam Dhar emphasized that the like was likely an accidental click while she was tagged in posts referencing an award function. It has come to my notice that I apparently liked a reel that is condescending toward another actor, she stated. It isn't true and was definitely not done consciously; if anything, it may have been clicked accidentally. Beyond the clarification, the actress took the opportunity to reiterate her long-standing professional philosophy. Known for her outspoken nature regarding the inner workings of the film industry, Yami stated that she has never resorted to cheap PR tactics and remains focused strictly on her cinematic output. She further noted that she does not employ a PR team, a choice she made early in her career to maintain an authentic public image. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Yami also reminded followers of her previously established stance on entertainment award shows. In the past, the actress has been vocal about the lack of transparency in award selections, often choosing to distance herself from the ceremonial aspect of the industry in favor of performance-driven projects. The actress has seen a surge in critical and commercial success recently, particularly with the 2024 political thriller Article 370, which was a box-office success. She is also closely associated with the production house of her husband, director Aditya Dhar. Her clarification comes at a time when digital footprints are closely monitored by fans and industry analysts alike. By addressing the situation directly, Yami aims to protect her reputation for being a work-focused professional, urging social media portals to avoid turning accidental clicks into coffee-table gossip.

Sanjay Gupta Finalizes Script For Kaabil 2 And Vows Deadlier Sequel While Awaiting Official Production Signal From Hrithik Roshan

Director Sanjay Gupta has confirmed that the screenplay for the sequel to the 2017 hit Kaabil is officially complete. In an exclusive conversation with Variety India, the filmmaker revealed that the project is now pending a green signal from Hrithik Roshan and producer Rakesh Roshan under their banner, FilmKraft Productions. Gupta, known for gritty action dramas like Shootout at Wadala, emphasized that the sequel aims to surpass the intensity of the original. He noted that the new script is significantly deadlier, adhering to the philosophy that a sequel must offer a superior experience to justify its existence. The director stated that as a writer and filmmaker, he is fully prepared to move into production the moment the Roshans determine the timing is right for the franchise's return. The original Kaabil remains a significant milestone in Hrithik Roshan's filmography. Despite a high-profile box office clash with the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Raees in January 2017, the film demonstrated strong legs at the ticket window, comfortably entering the ₹100 crore club. Hrithik's portrayal of Rohan Bhatnagar, a blind voice-over artist who turns into a calculated vigilante to avenge his wife, received widespread critical acclaim for its emotional depth and physical nuance. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   While the sequel's specific plot remains under wraps, it is expected to build on the vigilante-thriller foundation established by the first installment, which featured Yami Gautam, Ronit Roy, and Rohit Roy in pivotal roles. The first film was also noted for its soul-stirring music by Rajesh Roshan and a taut screenplay by Vijay Kumar Mishra, elements that fans expect to see replicated or elevated in the second chapter. Kaabil 2 will depend on Hrithik Roshan's current high-stakes slate.The actor is currently deep in the pre-production phase for the ambitious Krrish 4, which is expected to reach theaters in 2027. In a significant development for the franchise, Krrish 4 is slated to begin principal photography in mid-2026, with reports suggesting that Hrithik Roshan may take the director's chair himself. The superhero sequel is also reportedly moving toward a co-production model with Yash Raj Films (YRF), a move necessitated after extensive budget negotiations to ensure the project meets global visual standards. With Krrish 4 serving as the primary focus for mid-2026, Kaabil 2 is being viewed as a potent, high-intensity action project that could bolster FilmKraft's lineup during the 2026-2027 production cycle once the deadlier script receives the final go-ahead.

Interestingly, the charts witnessed a resurgence of evergreen titles, with Rani Mukerji's Mardaani 2 and Ayushmann Khurrana's Dum Laga Ke Haisha re-entering the Top 10, likely triggered by recent franchise announcements and social media nostalgia.

Dhurandhar 2: Yami Gautam to Reunite with Aditya Dhar for a Powerful Cameo in Ranveer Singh's Spy Sequel; Details Inside

The momentum for Aditya Dhar's massive espionage sequel, Dhurandhar: The Revenge, has reached new heights following a major casting update. According to an exclusive report by Pinkvilla, acclaimed actress Yami Gautam is set to make a pivotal cameo appearance in the film, reuniting with her husband and director Aditya Dhar for the first time since the legendary Uri: The Surgical Strike. This development adds a layer of lucky charm and high-octane intensity to a project that is already being hailed as the biggest cinematic event of 2026. Yami Gautam’s transition into an action-thriller powerhouse makes her a seamless fit for the Dhurandhar universe, aligning with her steady evolution toward more intense and physically demanding roles. She redefined her career by trading her earlier girl-next-door image for a sharp, authoritative portrayal of Intelligence Officer Pallavi Sharma in Uri: The Surgical Strike. She further solidified her credentials as an action star with the 2024 hit Article 370, where she played NIA agent Zooni Haksar, executing intense hand-to-hand combat and handling firearms with professional precision. Noted for her tactical realism and grounded intensity—qualities that have become a signature of Aditya Dhar's cinematic style—her ability to bring emotional depth to gritty espionage roles has made her a standout performer in the genre. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The news of her cameo comes at a time when the legacy of the first Dhurandhar (released Dec 2025) is still fresh in the minds of the audience. The first installment was a box office juggernaut, earning a staggering ₹1303 Crore worldwide and becoming an all-time blockbuster. By bringing Yami into the fold alongside a cast that includes R. Madhavan, Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, and Arjun Rampal, Aditya Dhar is effectively assembling a Superteam of intense performers designed to surpass the ₹1300 Crore milestone of the original.

Yami Gautam To Headline Aanand L Rai's Next Horror-Comedy Nayi Naveli; Details Inside!

Actress Yami Gautam Dhar is on a roll. Fresh off the critical acclaim of her recent courtroom drama, actress Yami Gautam has now been locked to lead a new project that marks a significant shift in genre. According to an exclusive report by Mid-day, Gautam is set to headline a horror-comedy titled Nayi Naveli, produced by Aanand L Rai's Colour Yellow Productions.The film is reportedly inspired by Indian folklore and is scheduled to go on floors in February 2026. Yami Gautam has carved a niche for herself as a bankable performer who balances content-driven cinema with commercial viability. Her most recent theatrical outing, the courtroom drama Haq (released in November 2025), saw her deliver a powerhouse performance that earned widespread praise.The film, which dealt with complex legal and social issues, managed to gross approximately ₹29 crore worldwide during its theatrical run before becoming a massive hit on OTT platforms earlier this month.This follows her 2024 film Article 370, which was a certified hit at the box office, collecting over ₹100 crore globally, further cementing her status as a leading lady who can carry a film on her shoulders. The announcement of Nayi Naveli comes at a time when Aanand L Rai is riding high on the success of Tere Ishk Mein (2025).The film, which saw the filmmaker reunite with superstar Dhanush, was a certified hit at the box office, grossing over ₹161 crore worldwide.However, trade analysts believe the film's lifetime potential was significantly curtailed by the release of the action-blockbuster Dhurandhar, which arrived just a week later. The massive wave generated by Dhurandhar led to a substantial loss of screens and a 35% dip in collections for Tere Ishk Mein; without this crushing competition, the romantic drama was on track to hit much higher benchmarks. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Following this resilient performance, the formidable actor-director duo is now reportedly gearing up for their fourth collaboration.Industry buzz suggests that this next project will be a large-scale period action romance, marking a significant departure for the pair as they explore an entirely new territory of historical storytelling and grand production scale. By roping in Yami Gautam for Nayi Naveli, Rai is looking to blend rooted Indian storytelling with the fantasy-folklore elements that are currently dominating the Indian silver screen. The choice of genre for Nayi Naveli is no surprise given the current climate of the Indian box office. Horror-comedy has emerged as the most lucrative genre in Bollywood over the last two years. Following the historic success of the Stree franchise and the surprising box office performance of films like Munjya and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, producers are increasingly looking toward rooted horror that combines local myths with humor. From a box office perspective, this genre has shown the highest Return on Investment (ROI) in recent times, often drawing massive footfalls in both urban centers and Tier-2/Tier-3 markets. With Yami Gautam's proven track record and Aanand L Rai's knack for capturing the pulse of small-town India, Nayi Naveli is already being touted as a project to watch out for in the 2026 release calendar.
